The Importance of
Speed in E-Logistics
Needless to say, “speed” is the most
important concept in e-commerce logistics in today's world. However, while we
were thinking about these, the pandemic process turned everything upside down.
Now, speed has gone beyond necessity and reached a different dimension. It
would not be a false statement to say that the e-commerce volume, which has
increased tremendously after the pandemic, caused difficulties in logistics
processes. Many brands experienced serious speed problems because they did not
have the infrastructure to respond to this unusual demand. Sales may have
increased, but there have been serious increases in the number of unhappy
customers due to delayed product deliveries as well as increased sales. At the
end of the day, the number of unhappy customers rose as the speed decreased.
If you want to make room for
yourself in e-commerce, you have to be fast. According to previous researches,
fast shopping is one of the most important concepts for online shoppers. According
to a recent study, 63% of online shoppers surveyed show that they expect
delivery within three days of ordering. More is a bad experience for them and
one of the biggest obstacles to re-intake. E-commerce businesses that find
themselves in this world need to know that speed is more important. Continuous
three-day (or faster) fulfillment cannot be easily accomplished and this
requires a supply chain that can achieve the ultimate goal.
Proper execution is essential for
supply chain management. But fully adopting it can sacrifice speed at some
point. To compensate for the increased speed demand, companies offer innovative
and customized solutions to their customers by increasing their warehouse
network and carrying capacity with 3PL services that increase speed and provide
almost perfect accuracy. Of course, it is not always easy to do this. Because
it is possible to establish a functioning structure with serious experience and
quality human resources. Although it is easy to create the right human
resource, it is unfortunately not possible to create a very correct structure
when this human resource is not blended with experience.
As a result, since speed is the sine
qua non of e-commerce, it has become the most important KPI for a successful
e-commerce logistics infrastructure provider. The slightest glitch that may
occur during the race, which starts from the moment the customer completes his
order, may cause you to lose all the races. That's why working with a logistics
service provider has become more critical than ever for a successful e-commerce
operation. Sertrans is ready to serve you in the field of e-commerce with its
